    Unlike all the other fountains in the city, the Röderbrunnen in the Rödergasse is broadly situated in an extension of the Rödergasse, so it could also serve as a drinking fountain. As well as the Johannisbrunnen the Röderbrunnen is calibrated and was adapted in 1716 to the needs of the city. It has a capacity "on 21 feet, 3 buckets and 4 measure".

      The Röderbrunnen was connected to other fountains and was fed with water by the height difference between the fountains. Due to its location at a wider point in Rödergasse, it was also used as a drinking fountain.

        The Röderbrunnen, together with the Markus Tower and the surrounding splendid half-timbered houses, is a picturesque ensemble. In the past, this fountain was used as a drinking trough.
